This year\u2019s theme is: \u201c<b>Reimagining Community | Doing History Together<\/b>\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Community has no singular definition and has infinite formations. From place-based communities, like our local coffee shops and parks; to identity-based communities created through shared experience of age, sexuality, ethnicity, faith, and more; to interest-based communities united by sport, food, clubs, and hobbies; community provides connection. Community histories are diverse, reflecting the multitude of ways people gather, communicate, experience, remember and imagine a world around them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Community is not only found in the subject of history but also in its practice. Community-based methodologies help uncover and recover stories, generate opportunities for shared authority, and promote accessibility in historical practice. Many histories are only made possible through the dedicated work of community members.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">This year we invite participants to think both about how we tell histories of community, and the role of community in creating and sustaining historical scholarship and practice. We invite graduate students from all disciplines to apply with a topic relating to this year\u2019s theme. Presentation themes can include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Community in historical practice: <\/b><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li3\">Community generated knowledge and projects<\/li>\n<li class=\"li3\">Accessibility and accessible history<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">&#8220;Imagined communities&#8221; and theory<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Histories of community and communities: <\/b><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Histories of friendship, kinship, and\/or family<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Histories of age and generational groups (e.g. children, youth, seniors)<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Histories of sport, food, art, music or other hobbies and activities<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Histories of NGOs\/aid-groups, clubs, collectives, unions and workplaces, schools, faith and spiritual groups<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Histories of place (e.g. buildings, neighbourhoods, cities)<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Histories of diaspora and (im)migrant communities<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">Histories of unlikely communities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">We are interested in promoting an interdisciplinary environment and welcome work that may not fit the conventional \u201cpaper presentation,\u201d such as posters, roundtable discussions and workshops. Paper presentations should be about 15 minutes, and any other format up to 60 minutes.
